Different manufacturers have different color casts characteristic of their lens lines, as well as variation within lines. Most try to make all their lenses have more or less the same 'look', which also includes balance between resolution and contrast, etc. Your assumption that a Mamiya 50/2 had the same color balance when new as a Zuiko or Pentax lens is not necessarily correct. It seems less likely to me that it shifted than that it was different from the beginning.

Could an old lens shift in it's color rendition like that?
